Johnny uses a wheelbarrow to move planting soil to a delivery truck. The volume of planting soil that fits in the wheelbarrow measures 2 feet by 3 feet by 1.5 feet. The delivery truck measures 11 feet by 8 feet and is 6 feet tall. Johnny puts planting soil in the delivery truck until the truck is 70% full. What is the minimum number of times Johnny needs to use the wheelbarrow until the delivery truck is 70% full?

55.44 inches

step-by-step explanation:

part a. assuming a perfectly linear relationship, we can find the slope from the first two data points.

slope = m = (change in rainfall)/(change in years)

= (61.80 -62.33)/(2005 -2004) = -0.53/1 = -0.53

then the point-slope form of the equation of the line can be written as

y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . m = -0.53, (h, k) = (0, 62.33)

y = -0.53x +62.33 . . . x = years after 2004

part b. in 2017, x = 2017 -2004 = 13. then the predicted rainfall is

y = -0.53·13 +62.33 = 55.44 . . inches

the predicted rainfall in 2017 is 55.44 in.

both triangles are similar because 2 is just smaller than the big one 1 is similar because they are facing different way's but are similar to each other
